Chapter 1649

Everyone here was in the medical profession, so they were naturally aware of the value of this paris

polyphylla in question.

Rowan knew this as well, but he was still unwilling to yield. "Explain this, Matthew. How did you know

he encountered a paris polyphylla? You've dug into him, haven't you?"

In response, Matthew shot him a glance. "Are you sure you're not an idiot, Rowan? I've been standing

right before your eyes since the moment his identity was revealed. How am I supposed to dig into him

when I've never made any contact with the outside world?"

Though somewhat speechless, Rowan still tried to argue, saying, "I-In that case, how do you know

about the paris polyphylla?"

"I don't know about that. What I do know is that he had surely encountered a rare medicinal herb,"

Matthew explained, rendering the crowd at a loss. "Why would you say so?" someone asked.

Matthew smirked in response. "That's because he was poisoned when he was eight, and it wasn't just

from one source. However, these poisons stifled each other and ultimately formed this five-poison

sagitta. So, I suspect he had encountered several rare toxic substances that don't normally gather in

one spot, but it isn't entirely impossible either. These powerful toxic substances would only come

together to seize certain legendary medicinal herbs after it has matured. As such, I assumed some

toxic substances happened to be seizing this medicinal herb when he encountered it, leading him to be

poisoned."

The explanation left everyone stupefied as Matthew convinced everyone with his logical reasoning.

Even Gregory, who was still on the platform, was currently at a loss for words.

Crystal, on the other hand, clapped in excitement. "So that's what you've based your assumption on. I

finally understand it now! My grandpa told me about this too. He said there will always be toxic

substances guarding a legendary medicinal herb, or it wouldn't be able to grow. The paris polyphylla

this patient encountered was arguably legendary-level. Surely, there would be toxic substances around

it. No wonder he got poisoned!"

The other renowned doctors all nodded in agreement then.

Though they rarely went into the wilderness to pick medicinal herbs, they knew that everything in

nature was allelopathic.

Anywhere anyone could find noxious insects could also find a cure for it, and anywhere a legendary

medicinal herb grew would also inevitably have toxic substances. It was the laws of nature.

Thus, Matthew wasn't some oracle at all; he only formed a theory based on this patient's condition.

Because of this, everyone was even more impressed by Matthew.

He was the epitome of a miracle doctor—composed, rigorous, and neither arrogant nor rash.

Many began cheering for him, and some even applauded with praises, for they had all been overawed

by Matthew.

On the other hand, Gregory, Rowan, and the others on the platform were dumbstruck.

While Gregory's face was ashen, unable to utter a word, Rowan suddenly thundered through gnashed

teeth, "I'm not buying it! Why should I take Matthew's words for it?! Who knows if he colluded with the

patient to fool everyone?! His condition still hasn't even been assessed. Either way, I'm not buying into

his words!" Drąмanоvels.com

Behind him, Tristan was on the verge of a meltdown after hearing so. "Uncle Rowan, why do you—"
